“Faith.” “Faith in a Supreme Being,” they say, “ brings stability and security.” No one knows better than God, our Creator, how harmful it is for man to continually feel uncertain. God never intended for His creatures to he insecure; and man never was — until he sinned and turned his back on God. God didn’t let it go at that, however.
